10 Best Cocktail Bars near Apollo Beach

Cigars on the Boulevard Cocktail Bar •
1438 Apollo Beach Blvd, Apollo Beach

“Sometimes the temptation is to keep good things to yourself, right?Then you can always wonder why it took so long to finally try them out.Anyways, I finally made the short trip over to sit a few and relax with a stick while watching the first half of the Ohio State Buckeyes vs some other team from western Pennsylvania.Got there right as they were opening and was promptly greeted by I assume one o the owners. Definitely veteran owned and "friendly".Had an unfortunate experience when I was a member of another veteran owned establishment in town, and have not been back since.I can see me coming back here a lot more. Felt comfortable and welcome the entire time.Bar service and selections...simply excellent.Humidor selection is good overall. Heavy on the J.C. Newman's, which I am fine with and in fact I had a Black Diamond (one of my personal favorites).Seating is plentiful and comfortable.I can see where this place would get pretty busy later in the evening. Luckily, that's not my scene and prefer the more laid back early afternoon sessions. Only one other patron, a Coast Guard veteran) was there and we chatted a bit.Pricing is fair in both the humidor and bar.So overall, I have to give this shop the highest possible marks and comments.Nice job and thank you all for your service and support to veterans!“

“Really cool place, great food. They have live music pretty routinely but the volume is at a tasteful level so you can still hold conversations. There’s usually a good mix of people who are dressed up and people who are super casual. One of my favorite spots to take people.“

“I went here for dinner. The atmosphere, food, and the service was good. I got the jambalaya pasta and it had a significant amount of shrimp, chicken and sausage. At other places it was more pasta than protein. This was not the case here.You can also get stunning views of the sunset that need to be seen in person. The full sun will be seen and fall below the horizon very quickly so don’t blink.“

“Wow, so today was my first time coming and EVERYTHING we tried was so delicious. The Mac and cheese bites, burnt ends, garlic fries, chicken/shrimp carbonara, and strawberry lemonade were some of the things we tried. The waiter ZENO did a PHENOMENAL job he was so kind and attentive. Went above and beyond with his service and presentation. He was really wonderful. We will be back. 10/10 recommend and suggest you ask for Zeno when you come. ?“
